There are a lot of options to choose from and the documentation is very thorough. If you are looking for a toolkit that will allow you to build and run distributed applications with a high degree of reliability, Akka is the way to go. The toolkit is very robust and allows you to build distributed applications with a high degree of…

Pros
  • Highly configurable
  • Robust framework

Great tool for building scalable and reliable applications

It has good support of asynchronous programming in java which allows us to write code that scales well with our application's needs as it can handle millions or even billions of messages per second without any issues at all!It also provides excellent debugging capabilities by allowing you access logs directly from your IDE ( IntelliJ ).

Pros
  • Java 8 async/await syntax, highly configurable event driven architecture for concurrency & parallelism great toolkit if we need non blocking messaging system where scalability is critical !Great debuggable logging feature too!!
Cons
  • Not enough examples provided out side its own website
